Sam's Club has outdone itself with this holiday dessert.
What happens when you combine the magic of unicorns with the magic of Christmas? You get an outrageously festive Santa unicorn cake from Sam’s Club. It’s perfect for anyone on the Nice List!
What the Santa Cake Looks Like
You may remember the original unicorn cake Sam’s Club debuted earlier this year. It’s the same idea—but with a festive makeover. The spectacular Santa cake has one tier featuring Santa’s belt, another with Christmas-colored red and green sprinkles and the top has red eyelashes and a red and green striped unicorn horn—of course!
Sam’s also has a winter-themed unicorn cake, which bears a striking resemblance to Elsa from Frozen. It’s decorated in icy blues and whites, with a blue and white striped horn and beautiful snowflakes on the bottom layer.

It’s Surprisingly Affordable
It would be hard to find another dessert with so much wow-factor for the price. Both cakes can be ordered in either vanilla or chocolate (or a combo of both!) and come in two different size options. Buy a three-tier cake that feeds 66 people for $70 or a two-tier cake that feeds 46 people for $40. Here’s how to buy one without a Sam’s membership.
Either way—the cake will make for a Merry Christmas!
Here’s How to Buy a Cake
The cakes are made to order for a limited time at your local Sam’s Club, so plan ahead. The Santa cake will be available through December 24 and the winter-inspired cake will be available through the end of January 2019.

I've used this recipe for almost 40 years and love it because it's a little different than most. My mom always made Santa cookies, and we'd put them into little clear bags tied with ribbon to hang on the tree.—Ann Bush, Colorado City, Colorado
I love creating special deviled eggs for parties. These little Santas are easier to make than they look, and everyone raves over them. —Crystal Schlueter, Northglenn, Colorado
I have been seeing "surprise inside cookies" for a few years and really wanted to come up with my own version. After a little brainstorming, I came up with the idea of making Santa's belly cookies and filling them with miniature cookies. These are so much fun to give as gifts—just wrap in colored cellophane and tie with a festive ribbon. You can exchange the mini cookies for candy or anything you'd like; if desired, you can color the cookie dough red, too. —Crystal Schlueter, Northglenn, Colorado
The kids will be jumping for joy when you bring out a cookie plate filled with Santas and his helper elves. These whimsical treats will be a hit with adults, too. The butter cookies are easy to shape and a delight to decorate. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen
